Last night W & I had dinner at the IL's with some of their friends. 2 years ago we had dinner with these friends and W didn't speak to me all night, last year she spoke to me only to keep up a happy appearance, but last night was just a fun evening.
All this got me thinking to where I was this time last year , and I've come a long way since then. Here in the UK we are coming up to the start of the Christmas season and people are putting up there decorations etc, W and I managed to sort out our decorations and put up the tree without any arguments that is a first for us.
To all those struggling with piecing I would just say stick at it cos it is really, really hard if you don't show patience.
So we are still moving forward, travelling that road ahead.
Lan, Good to see you further along the road to happiness. I see you trying to live by these carefully chosen titles. It must be nice with the renovations done, Christmas decorations up and W on board. But I know it hasn't come easily and you must be the most patient person here! I thought we'd see a picture of you and W you know where.

Oh dear I am out of step again! my decorations go up the last week end before Christmas and start coming down as soon as last visitor has gone, just a token few things left for 12th night. Maybe thats where I went wrong.
Hey Neaj, Round our way people race to get their Christmas lights up in the first weekend in December, as this years first weekend doesn't occur until the 6th many of the neighbours were doing things this weekend gone.
fb2, Kalni, This time last year W was talking to me about our Christmas decorations and how we could improve them, she was also working out in her head how we could renovate the house together in the coming year, and all of this whilst still being "poked" by OM. All very strange and difficult to understand. So yes a bit of sentimentality on my part, a bit of reflection on my journey, and then move forward.
Hey fb2, Maybe I should change my middle name to patience instead of Lanzo, I think I am only doing what others have done before me and maybe the patience comes across a bit more in my sitch.
Lanzo
PS If you search for me "Lanzo" middle name you should find me and plenty of pics.
You have a pretty family and you look happy in those pictures. Makes me wonder...
What do you wonder about ?
Pictures can somtimes be deceiving when I look back at some recent pictures W was always posing upright and rigid, and I was always leaning towards her as if trying to get closer. Things are better now though, W and I are in fromt of the fire now watching TV,nice and cosy not much else to report.
